Page Two THE REGISTER. GUARD, EUGENE, OREGON Janria LEGISLATORS DUE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) new construction and will assure com pletlon of Important highway projects now under way and will pave the way for new projects needed In the atate, It Is believed. One issue certain to entangle the aeaaion la the matter of toll-free bridges along the coaat highway. Itesl denta of the coast sections are pre paring measures to make the bridges toll free in spite of the fact the kv rnmcnt'a contracts with the state call for tolls on the bridges, the tolls acting as security for the loans covering 30 per cent of the cost of construction. In the event such a law waa passed, It would necessitate the state highway commission Issuing approximately 4, 600,000 Honda to cover this security, or state highway funds, otherwise go ing Into construction, would have to be put np for this security, it ia be lieved. Bus, Truok Law Again Closely associated with highway legislation will be the attempt to change the present bua and truck la which caused so much agitation during the past year, even resulting in threat on the part of a few Lane county people, believed to be asso dated with truckers, to recall the governor. Opponents to this law claim It tends to drive the small trucker off the highway through excess licenso fees which the larger operator is bet ter able to pay. Those opposed to the lsw will at tempt to repeal the high license fees for small trucks, probably seeking to keep the big truck operators paying a high rate. Auto license fees also may be at tacked, some opposition being based on the claim that largo, expensive cars should pay higher fees than small ancient automobiles. There also la some talk that an attempt will be made to shift the auto license depart ment away from the secretary of atate, establishing a aeparate com mission to handle this work. u Welfare Due For Storm The atate interim committee's sug gestion to take control of welfare in stitutions out of the hands of the state board of control, In effect abolishing this board so far as Its real powers are concerned, will cause plenty of debate when It oppeara in the legisla ture. Opponents fear It. will result In concentrating power In the hands of the governor instead of distribut ing It among the three members of the board of control. ' This move originated with the Meier administration following Meier's rum puses with State Treaaurer Holman and Governor Martin has passed this matter over to the legislature and the state planning commission, derlnrlng Ms wish to hsve no hand In Its enact ment. Much shouting of dletatorahlpa ann concentration or power probably will accompany the blll'a progrcaa TSrongn the houses. More Teeth vs. Lost Teeth . Two morementa have developed around the criminal syndicalism law of the slate. One, believed headed by refer Zimmerman, defeated Indrpen- flent candidate for governor, and a member of the aenate, would demand repeal of the law entirely on the grounds It hampera free speech and Is un-American In purpose. Another move would keep the law and put till more teeth Into the measure on the grounds that free speech Is all right, but when anmeone starts advo cating violent overthrow of the gov. eminent, that person should be sun pressed. This Issue Is guaranteed to pack the lobblea when It arrlvea. Thla question and the matter of chain atore legislation loom as two of the hottest potatoea for legislatora during the coming session. The rhsin store question Is certain to come np since It Is said Klton Watklna hsa a bill already prepared that will effect licenses for chnin stores. The nature of this hill has not been revealed, however. Closely allied with this type of legis lation Is the anticipated hill to protect branded and graded products and hit ting at those who "band you a aub stltnte." Oil companies are expected to send their lobbies to Ralem in the Interest of this bill since they are anx ious to keep out "hot oil ami gasoline" which competes with standard grade products. A possible alliance between antl-chaln store Interests and oil com panics Is seen when this legislation comes np. Milk Doard To Be Target Of special Interest to Lane county Will be Irglslaflon n aarinillure ami the milk control board of the state. Considerable opposition has arisen atainst the present milk contrd bisaril, much of this opposition originating in I.sne county. The opposition Is based in part on the contention that butter fat proiluerra ars assessed most of the cost of administering the system, the assessment being made on their surplus products. Confronting The Legislature Following, In brief form, are some specific linos legislation 1s expected to take at the atate legislature at Salem during the com ing seaslon.

Cities Guard "Homo Rule" Municipal and connty legislation Is scheduled to come up, the cities being Interested In proposals which will bo directed through the League of Ore gon Cities with which Eugene is af filiated. Cities are interested In pro tecting "home rule" rights and are vitally Interested in securing such rev enue aa they now have and In obtain ing additional funda. In this latter field, a move to obtain a share of liquor funda for cities la certain to appear. A bill will be Introduced to provide for cities voting on the matter of in augurating elvil service for fire de partments and bills providing for city and county planning commissions, along with a state planning commis sion, will bs thrown In the hopner. legislation regarding pensions, un employment Insurance and other social and economic welfare measurea are expected to be played down pending letiarai ensctment on these measures Governor Martin baa said he believes these measures should await f nitre. I action and he la expected to suggest the leglslsture await thla action. This proposea the possibility of a special session or the group to consider such matter after the federal government has laid the foundation.

"Doublle" Falls to Imprest One of the day's developments A story that a "double" of ilauptiniinii had been found and that it might huvu been this double that witnesses re purted seeing near the LindlierKh home in the Sourlnnd hills the day the baby waa kidnaped and killed, faild to impress K e 1 1 1 y. The "double" was named aa Robert Scau- lon of Meulo Park, a man who was in the vicinity of the Lindbergh homo about the time of the crime. . "From Mr. Edison's laboratories in Menlo Park come many Inventions," said Keilly. "Could this story of i Haiiptmaun 'double' be oueof thorn?' The atate is ready to refute any effort by the defense to show that other persons than Uauptmann per petrated the crime. "We do not concede in the least the possibility of a gaug," Attorney large, assistant prosecutor, said. "The fact that we can trace the use of flO.OtSO of the 150,000 ransom money to Uauptmann rntl.er precludes a gnng. It would bo highly Improbable that Uniiptinnnn had assistance and then failed to divide the money with accompllcea. The atate.

Osliorn, hand writing expert, who testified Haupt- mana wrote all the notes. Attorney Large said Ilauntinnnn has estlhlnshed himself "as a princi pal by his own handwriting, "and re gardless of our one-man theory of the crime, he can be convicted of first ilegree murder under New Jersey law." In addition to Osborn who testified at length jesterdsy, the state will of fer four other handwriting experts as witnesses, nml "more if necessary. Itrge expressed the conviction that the defense could not show thnt Ia dor Kiseh wrote the notes. Central grange has adopted the fol- lowing resolution in this regard: "Whereas the problem of public safety la ever growing in importance to every city and means being con atantly nought and devised to re duce accidents and prevent des truction of life and property and "Wherena West Eleventh Street Is one of the main traffic lanes lend ing Into the city of Eugene, nnd with tho probable enrly extension of Route F the traffic will rapidly increase and accident hazard become pro portionately greater along said mreet and "Whereas we understand that the City Council ia at the present time, considering the creation of New Safe ty Zones and through streets and " berens said West Eleventh Street la one under consideration for through traffic, and all our members aa well aa the entire Central Com munity use this streot as their main entrance to the city of Eugene and re vitally interested In traffic con ditions on this particular afreet.
